Power limiter, flush-mounted OM-616

Flush-mounted power limiter

The OM-616 limiter is a device designed to control power consumption in electrical circuits. Designed for flush-mounting, it is ideal for installation in places where limiting the maximum load is important, e.g. in sockets in publicly accessible areas. Its function is to automatically disconnect the power supply when the set power value is exceeded, protecting the installation from overload and ensuring safe use.

Functionality and application

The device is intended for direct power control in individual socket outlets. This allows for precise energy management and prevents overloads caused by connected receivers. This is particularly useful in multi-family buildings, housing communities, or rooms with limited connection possibilities. Limiting power consumption can be crucial where there is a risk of simultaneous operation of multiple devices with high energy demand.

Characteristics and installation

The OM-616 limiter is a single-phase device that does not require an external power source. It has a fixed power return time after disconnection caused by exceeding the set power. Installation is flush-mounted, ensuring an aesthetic appearance of the installation. The device does not have detachable terminals - the connections are permanent, which increases the reliability of operation.

It is worth remembering that power limiters are simple but effective tools for managing electrical energy and protecting installations from damage caused by overload.
